I listened to the audiobook & read this book and I have never read anything quite like it before. It was trauma heavy and gross (lots of bodily fluids). The plot got lost in all the metaphors and poetic writing, I was confused a lot of the time, but even with all of the flaws I still wanted to continue the story.
Graphic: Excrement, Physical abuse, Child abuse, and Xenophobia
Moderate: Sexual violence and Vomit
